I really loved this book. The whole time I read it, I kept looking at the cover, knowing that it was a real picture of Andrew. I looked in his eyes for any clue of sadness that was his life. The story is profoundly inspirational, told without a trace of bitterness - and clearly required tremendous courage to write. It will make you see the world through the eyes of a child and you will reflect on your family and kids. It's amazing. A must read. I would rate it a 4 1/2 out of 5.

Synopsis:

From a disastrous decade in foster care to Harvard Law School and beyond: this is the profoundly moving memoir of one boy who beat the system.

Outside of loving my little business and helping people to make family heirlooms I have a wonderful life here in Abbotsford, BC. I love old things, family life, healthy living, green living, literature, sewing, gardening, parenting and cooking. That's what I'll be blogging about day after day.
